Description
The Double Serial Interface Board is an optional device for
EasyCoder 501 XP, EasyCoder 601 XP, EasyCoder F2, and
EasyCoder F4, that provides the printer with two extra interfaces, "uart2:" and "uart3:". The printer must be fi tted with the
Intermec Fingerprint v7.xx fi rmware.
This interface can be fi tted with straps and circuits for one of
the following alternatives:
• RS-232
• RS-422 non isolated
• RS-422 isolated
• RS-485
This interface can be fi tted with straps and circuits for one of
the following alternatives:
• RS-232
• RS-422 non isolated
• 20 mA Current Loop
The Double Serial Interface Kit contains:
• One interface board fi tted for RS-232 on both interfaces.
• One cover plate (for EasyCoder XP-series printers only.)
• One fl at cable (for EasyCoder F-series printers only.)
• This Installation Instruction booklet.
Circuits for RS-422 non-isolated, RS-422 isolated, RS-485,
and 20 mA current loop can be bought separately from Intermec.

the interface cables and switch on the power.
• Enter the Setup Mode to set the proper baud rate, character
length, parity, number of stop bits, fl owcontrol, new line,
and buffer size parameters for the new serial ports "uart2:"
and "uart3:".
